USDA’s Risk Management Agency on Nov. 14 announced it will continue to defer accrual of interest for 2019 crop year insurance premiums to help the wide swath of farmers affected by extreme weather in 2019. Specifically, USDA will defer the accrual of interest on 2019 crop year insurance premiums to either the applicable termination date or Jan. 31, whichever comes first. This change is for all policies with an original premium billing date of Aug. 15, 2019.
